Sounds like a good strategy to take down Cruz. Can’t blame them for trying. Who’s behind the super-PAC? Could be the GOPe but it’s Trump who would likely benefit most from Cruz’ demise.
The Republican Establishment can’t get at Trump until they take down Cruz.
If Trump and Cruz dominate the early primaries and caucuses bringing in large chunks of delegates, Rubio will be forced out.
Cruz must be destroyed to give Rubio a shot at Trump.
